Season Pass Registration Introduction to Using MapRun Course Map Download - Event Notes
FIRST TIMERS:
Street orienteering is a great introduction to orienteering and first timers and groups of 2 or more are most welcome to participate as teams. You can walk, run, or mix walking and running. You visit the controls in any order, unlike other orienteering events where you follow a course in numerical order. There is a first timers briefing at the assembly area between 4.45pm and 6.15pm. You can either download the MapRun app to complete a course or do a self-timed course and report the result.
For more information on installing and using the MapRun app, see: https://sites.google.com/view/maprun-canberra/intro This information includes instructions on how to review your result and amend it if MapRun fails to register at a control you definitely visited.
